Kb, Gorgeous Long-eared Owl... I've seen a Cat-eyed mantis which I always thought was a Stick mantis, but not the others, the Pink Orchid mantis is stunning.
Karen, sweet pic of SWFL
{{{Clynn}}} I love your darling Christmas family photo!
.... yes, Mike gets his shot in the lower spine tomorrow. I just talked to the doctor's office. No food 8 hours prior to shot and no driving for 24 hours. The french toast looks divine and so does the Peanut butter cookies. I printed recipes for both. I wonder if Aly can have the cookies, there's no flour. Yum. I could bake those today!
... sweet pic of NEFL eagles and their first egglet, and photo of the Berry nest....
Phyl, love Sanderlings!... Winter Solstice celebrations around the world. The Hopi of Northern Arizona is #7 Soyal, Sadie comes from the Hopi Reservation. She was especially watchful on our walk this morning.
... fun photo, Jim, happy crew and/or friends or all of the above!
Tsk, I will be so relieved for Mike when he gets his shot. I know this trip has been hard on him. He wouldn't say, but I could tell in his voice at night.
Lisa, I really think you can freeze the cake. I would try it. I've done this for the girls when they wanted a snack after school. I've baked my honey cornbread, brownies, cake, cut the slices and left in the pan. Cover & freeze. They've cut a piece with a butter knife & warmed in the micro. I bet you could pre-slice the bundt cake, place parchment paper between slices, keeping the cake in its shape & moist, cover & freeze.... Mike is returning from Louisiana in late this afternoon. He and Aly will leave for the valley in the morning. His appt for a shot is at 1pm. No food before shot and no driving for 24 hours. Aly will drive him home.... Your Christmas Dinner sounds perfect! You will be to spend lots of TLC time with Sydney, B & K.
. Which is what Christmas is all about {{{Family}}}
